User talk:Quadradoge

Welcome

We have been waiting for you.

Hello, Quadradoge, and welcome to Uncyclopedia. This is a wiki (a collection of pages anyone can edit). Words in blue are "links" and can be clicked to take you to another page. This wiki is for comedy. It pretends it's Wikipedia, but we make people laugh, not bore them. If you aren't interested in a fake encyclopedia but in fake news stories, we have UnNews, and there are other projects for scripts, lyrics, how-to guides, books, etc.

What you can do

You can create your own article. You can create it under your own name if, for example, you are not sure whether you will finish it; such as User:Quadradoge/An article. If you don't have any ideas, we have a list of articles that need to be created.

If you've written an article, we have a Proofreading service where someone will correct your mistakes, and a review process where another Uncyclopedian will read your article and suggest improvements.

You can help without writing articles; just read articles and, if you see an improvement in writing or in comedy, jump in and edit it. In fact, you can help without writing at all, such as organizing, watching for vandals, or even greeting other new users.

What you need

To write articles, you need a sense of humor and an ability to write good English. We all have strengths and weaknesses and you can get help in any area. But everyone needs an ability to work with other people. Be polite, positive, and helpful toward others, and assume others are doing the same toward you.

What to read

• Help pages

• Our vanity policies: why you should not write anything about yourself or your friends

• And finally, How to be funny and not just stupid|this guide will tell you what can be funny and what cannot and whether some jokes have already been overused.

For personal help

• Active administrators of Uncyclopedia are able to help you. In addition to that they are paid twice as much as we are, however, they still cannot afford a cup of coffee;

• Several experienced Uncyclopedians have indicated their willingness to adopt new users;

• Finally, you can ask questions on your (here) or on my talk page. And I will be willing to help you!

How to post to talk pages

Please follow these general rules:

• Add comments at the end of a talk page so people notice your addition.

• Start your paragraphs with one or more ":" characters to indent them and set them off from other people's posts.

• At the end, type ~~~~ (four tildes), which gets replaced by your signature (you can set it up using Preferences) and the date and time of your post.

I hope you enjoy it here!
